Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the first time that I saw you girl,
I knew it had to be you.

You're all that I've dreamed of, will be her with me
Now you made my dreams reality
I knew it was you, lady
I knew it had to be you.
You turn my world, babe




The sky is blue
I knew it had to be you.

This is my all time FAVORITE Silk song!   Out of all the albums they have, I love this one and it wasnt a popular single.  They are my favorite R&B group til this day.;  Been rocking with them from day one / Happy Days!   Ive seen them in concert 3 times and have met them each time. They are so humble and down to earth.  ♥ Love them   SILK4LIFE  ♥
